Geology Comments

Sep 09, 2013 (A Wilson) - The Colborne-Stephenson Lakes Deformation Zone (SCDZ) is located in southern Rennie township where it is defined by a 300 m wide zone of ductile shearing and moderately to strongly deformed rocks. The CSDZ can be traced for at least 4 km, is open to the east, and has not been traced westward of the Rennie Lake Stock which may truncate or deflect the zone. The SCDZ is localized in felsic to intermediate pyroclastic rocks with minor mafic metavolcanic intercalations. Within the SCDZ there are several ductlie shear zones where the rocks are deformed to sericite-chlorite-quartz-carbonate schists. These zones trend from 85 to 110 degrees and range in width from less than 1 m to 10 m.

Lithology Comments

Dec 07, 2005 (A Wilson) - The occurrence consists of a series of sub-parallel concordant quartz veins within a quartz-feldspar porphyry band. The veins are oriented at 120 degrees with dips at 75 degrees SW to sub-vertical. The veins range from 6 to 72 inches in width. The best assay was obtained from the widest vein.




Mineralization Comments

Sep 09, 2013 (A Wilson) - The occurrence consists of a series of sub-parallel concordant quartz veins within a quartz-feldspar porphyry band. The porphyry ismassive to foliated, creamy grey in colour. Several sub-paralle concordant quartz veins were observed in the area of this sample. The veins are oriented at 120 degrees with dips at 75 degrees SW to sub-vertical. The veins range from 6 to 72 inches in width. The best assay was obtained from the widest vein.
